THE Question for Protestants

After having multiple theological debates with various Protestants, particularly with some that adhere to or are in support of various Cavalry Chapel doctrines/positions (I mention CC because I have an really big axe to grind with them, see the very first blog post on this site), I have come up with the question that no half-way sentient and thoughtful Protestant can ignore. Here it goes....

"As a Protestant, it is generally understood that you disavow any affiliations with the Pope and reject all human traditions. Having said that, how do you explain the fact that you use a book, the Bible, that is a Catholic Tradition, assembled by Catholics and officiated by a Catholic council that was headed by a Pope?"

Strip away the Bible (be it a Protestant or Catholic one) and there is nothing left but confusion. Expect to hear some off-the-wall answer as to how one has been brainwashed by the Catholic Church into accepting that viewpoint.

Silly Protestants, the Bible is for Catholics!

I look forward to seeing some opinions on this matter...
